Continuing SEASON 7:




"The Heritage" (7)
By: Ralph Ferraro
https://ok.ru/video/3670858205766
Alternative link: https://ok.ru/video/9204925008630

Highlights:
  • 0:42 in. Brass lead cue with a steady chugging strings for a train pulling into a train station.^
  • 2:41 in.^
  • 5:12/7:25 in. This action material here sounds like Rosenman, making me wonder just perhaps how much of a hand Ferraro had in Rosenman's scores now and then (he did orchestrate for him in projects).^
  • 9:02 in.^ *
  • 11:20 in.^
  • 15:55 in.^
  • 22:32 in.^
  • 27:04 in.^
  • 28:06 in.^
  • 29:58 in.^
  • 30:27 in. With some bustling cattle rustling music.^
  • 44:59 in.^
  • 50:48 in. Tell me that opening doesn't sound like Rosenman.^
  • 51:57 in.^
  • 1:01:47 in.^
  • 1:03:23 in.^
  • 1:09:53 in.^

    This was a good score.

    * = Convenient basket of puppies. Yes, that's how people leave them lying around -- in baskets.

    (NtM: 43:55)

    "Well, there are two things I can do: cuss and pray. I've been doin' more of one than the other."

    June Bear: "I don't understand all your questions, but we can look for the answers together."

    Out-of-context quote exchange...
    "Nice and cozy."
    "That's how I like 'em."

    Continuing SEASON 7:




    "Ride to Misadventure" (8)
    By: Russell Garcia (uncredited effort?)
    https://ok.ru/video/3670858271302
    Alternative link: https://ok.ru/video/9204924812022

    Highlights:
  • 0:42 in. Opens with drama material that sounds more like Ferraro doing a Rosenman take.^
  • 2:44 in.
  • 13:00 in.^
  • 13:48 in.^
  • 18:13 in.^
  • 20:13 in.^
  • 23:23 in.^
  • 27:35 in.^
  • 31:53 in.^
  • 34:14 in.^
  • 35:02 in.^
  • 40:39 in.
  • 54:34 in.^
  • 56:20 in.^
  • 57:32 in.^
  • 1:12:39 in.^

    Online sources -- probably copied and pasted from IMDb -- claim this is a score by Garcia, though I think it's a track job of Rosenman and Ferraro cues. I covered highlights above because I didn't know he wasn't credited until I double checked the end credits.

    The Virginian is worse than Bart Simpson -- at least Bart changed his cloths early on to different colors. The Virginian just keeps wearing the same thing year after year.

    (NtM: 49:04, 54:28)

    "... you'll be dead so fast somebody will have to remind you to lay down."

    TRACK JOB

    Continuing SEASON 7:




    "Big Tiny" (13)
    By: Frank DeVol
    https://ok.ru/video/9204926450422

    This is the only effort by DeVol for the series.

    Highlights:
  • 0:45 in.
  • 4:35 in.^
  • 6:16 in.^
  • 8:27 in.^
  • 10:18 in.^
  • 12:46 in.^

  • 1:08:21/1:09:13 in.
  • 1:10:02 in.^(parts)
  • 1:16:44 in.^

    A lot of seriocomedic music lead by brass, some woodwinds, and banjo.
    I cited the vast majority of the score, maybe skipping over about half a dozen cues. I might have missed some short ones while skimming the episode for score cues.

    "Stopover" (14)
    TRACK JOB
    https://ok.ru/video/9204926122742

    (Identify: 2:24, 7:28, 10:42, 12:13, 15:16, 29:49, 40:08, 56:12, 1:05:45, 1:09:40, 1:14:38 [probably Herrmann], and 1:16:34.)

    Online sources say stock music from other episodes including: Herrmann, Stevens, Rugolo)

    Continuing SEASON 7:




    "Last Grave at Socorro Creek" (16)
    By: Bernard Herrmann
    https://ok.ru/video/9204927761142

    An old LP from Cinema Records (#8006) contains what is presumably most of the score to this episode on side A ("The Film Music of Bernard Herrmann"). You can find it on archive.org (the "Internet Archive", A.K.A.: The Way Way Back Machine); that's where I got my copy.

    Continuing SEASON 7:




    "Crime Wave in Buffalo Springs"
    By: Lyn Murray
    https://ok.ru/video/9204927564534

    Highlights:
  • 0:49 in.^
  • 2:12 in. Boisterous piece with comedic flares that is well crafted.^
  • 4:52 in.^
  • 6:42 in.
  • 13:07 in.^
  • 17:20 in. Rambunctious fight music with banjo.^
  • 19:20 in.^
  • 23:07 in.^
  • 28:46 in.
  • 33:52 in.^
  • 41:18 in.^(opening)
  • 44:10 in.^
  • 46:10 in.^
  • 49:27 in.
  • 50:41 in. And the use after the commercial break.^
  • 52:38 in.^
  • 55:29 in.^
  • 58:33 in.^
  • 1:01:00 in.^
  • 1:09:22 in.^
  • 1:13:14 in.

    I cited nearly everything.
    This score has a little bit of everything thrown in, from style to instruments (harmonica, banjo, wooden xylophone, etc.).

    I found the over-the-top comedic tone of this episode, much more in line with the spin-off series "Laramie", to be quite irritating and very dumb at times. I wouldn't recommend watching this.

    "The Ordeal"
    TRACK JOB
    https://ok.ru/video/9204927498998

    Hey, remember her absurd stupid behavior and love for the horse a season or two ago? Barely sheds a tear here.

    This is a good episode to do salvage work from -- long uses of music with little to no FX.

    (Identify: 5:40, 22:39, 24:14, 28:10, 29:29 [long], 40:19, 43:49, 47:59 [long], 57:24, 1:00:17, 1:03:27, 1:09:07, 1:14:57.)

    "Eileen"
    TRACK JOB
    https://ok.ru/video/9204927630070

    (Identify: 0:47, 4:14, 6:23, 13:45, 15:30, 17:16, 21:25, 23:27, 37:38, 54:29, 59:50 [maybe Stevens?], 1:07:16, 1:10:00, 1:12:07 [maybe Stevens?], 1:16:21.)

    "Incident at Diablo Crossing" (22)
    By: Stanley Wilson

    This is the only effort by Wilson for the series.

    Highlights:
  • 0:47 in.^
  • 3:35/7:47 in.^
  • 10:06 in.^
  • 12::38 in.^

  • 48:50 in.^
  • 50:44 in.^
  • 55:20 in.^
  • 1:01:47 in.^
  • 1:03:29 in.^
  • 1:04:11 in.^
  • 1:07:10 in.^
  • 1:12:57 in.^
  • 1:16:11 in.^

    This was good score. I wouldn't be opposed to the entire score being released. I pretty much cited the entire thing anyway.

    Final original score of the season.
